JONATHAN ROOPER, EXTREMIST GENOCIDE DENIER

Jonathan Rooper is part what is known as fringe extremist genocide deniers close to Stephen Karganovic and Republika Srpska financed denial machine. A man with no credibility, no education, and no training in DNA science or international law is busy downplaying the DNA identification of Srebrenica Genocide victims. For him, science and international law should be dismissed and we should only believe what genocide deniers and supremacists -- like Jonathan Rooper -- want us to believe happened in Srebrenica. Of course, Jonathan Rooper has no evidence to provide, he did not exhume any bodies from mass graves, and he relies solely on pseudo-scientific allegations of Ljubisa Simic - a long-time discredited Serbian defence team expert at the Hague trials.

"DNA-based identifications of persons reported missing in wartime does not and cannot address the manner of death in any of those identified... This does not support, and cannot be used to support, Srebrenica-massacre allegations [of 8,000 shot dead]."

DNA science is only part of identification process. Some 8,000 Bosniaks reported missing by their family members after the fall of Srebrenica were found in mass graves. Some had blindfolds, some had their hands tied, they were systematically executed and dumped in the mass graves. To hide evidence, Serbs also excavated bodies from mass graves 2-3 months later and the moved them to seconday mass graves. There are also satelite images of the massacre. Survivors' accounts also confirm that executions were systematic in nature. Not all victims were dumped in mass graves -- some were dumped in nearby rivers and streams, some burned, others left to rot dead on surface. Those who had weapons made it safely, but 8,000 had no weapons to defend themselves and were moving targets. Those interested in learning more should consult relevant judgements -- be warned that supremacist extremists like Jonathan Rooper, Andy Wilcoxson, Stephen Karganovic and similar fringe far-right characters readily misinterpret international judgmenets. When researching Srebrenica -- anything coming from these people should be dismissed. They are discredited liars, supremacists, genocide deniers and deliberate distortionists.

Here is a list of the most active far-right Islamophobic supremacists, deliberate 'disinformers' and long-time genocide deniers (who also sometimes deny their own denial). They are, in random order,

Srebrenica Genocide is not a matter of anybody's opinion; it's a judicial fact recognized first by the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and subsequently by the International Court of Justice.
